Any help would be helpful

Fuel pressure gauge with a 3 1/2 inch Benzel on it. Doesn't come apart. Any ideas were to look? Thanks

Many of us purchase replacement gauges from a local CAT dealer. If you go that route, the parts person can sell you an adapter ring and screws that are proper for the new gauge. At one point, there were replacement gauge faces, but those were for much earlier machines. I believe there might be some Stewart Warner guages with similar bar reading from your favorite auto supply store, but unclear if the rings are available. If you are in dire need, I might have a decent used ring I can mail you. JM

Check eBay. Sometimes something shows up there.

Several years back a neighbor had a SW gauge that I glued (epoxy) to the back of the bezel and it and looked like a new one. To my knowledge it is still working.

The adapter ring from Cat is part # 5B9683... it has a 2 1/16'' hole that will fit a Stewart Warner gauge as well as the gauge from Cat. This part number is for the ring only, much better to source some brass screws and nuts from the hardware store... the ones from Cat are too pricy.

That gauge does come apart, you have to gently pry on the front metal ring and it will come off. I have disassembled multiple gauges for repair.

fivebmc: If you want it, just PM me your mail address. No charge; just paying it forward. I have had several members share tractor parts with me in past, just trying to pay it forward and help another.

Wayne: Good to know that you are still out there; TractorDon and I were talking about you, and wouldn't want you to miss his BBQ if he has it in March.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
